Chapter 56 Voting
The cold wind blew their hands dry and red.
The hands of the two people who were playing against each other were trembling.
The despair on the young man's face was unobstructed, and he trembled because he was afraid.
Bai Lan trembled with joy.
She came out with rock, and her cousin came out with scissors.
She won!
"Are you ready?" Bai Lan glanced at her cousin, "Let's start?" β
Bai Lan's cousin was reluctant and muttered:
"Bad luck......"
He was so frightened that he tightened his clothes and looked back at his father in the distance, hoping that he would give him a miracle.
But, there are no miracles.
Li Hang stood on the red line twenty or thirty meters away, shook his head bitterly, and waved his hand:
"Son, come on!"
After encouraging his son, Li Hang reluctantly exchanged a few words with the healing supernatural beside him, and asked the anomalyte to step on the safety red line and go to his son's vicinity to standby, if he was blown up, then immediately treat him for internal injuries.
That's all he can do.
Bai Lan's cousin grimaced, rubbing his feet against the ground, and reluctantly walked forward.
Their task is to clear mines, so they should not walk forward like a normal walk, but use their feet to make a path at least half a meter wide, and their feet must be firm, and they must also remove the snow, and then sprinkle red powder on the place where they have stepped out.
The three supernatural beings were forced to death before, and Bai Lan's cousin also knew that his end was probably similar.
One meter away, he didn't dare to walk in a straight line, because he always felt that the probability of stepping on thunder in a straight line would be much higher.
He carefully shifted his steps, turning the corner.
But he only walked out of half a meter, and when he heard a "boom", he stepped on thunder!
Most of the explosive power of this mine is concentrated directly above, and the crater created after blasting is not too large, although the crater is only about half a meter in diameter, but the damage suffered by people in this range is unimaginable.
Bai Lan's cousin clutched his chest and abdomen in pain, fell to his knees, coughed violently, and coughed up several mouthfuls of blood.
The healer immediately came to the vicinity and used the ability to heal as much of his internal injuries as possible.
He looked at his demining protective suit, which was already seriously damaged, and hurriedly demanded:
"I ...... I need a new set of protective clothing! β
A set of protective clothing could support him to clear mines five times, and this is only the fourth time, and his protective clothing could have supported him once, but he was afraid of death, so he asked to change it immediately.
In fact, he also knew that the protective suit was much worse than his invulnerable body, and wearing it or not had no effect, but he still hoped that he could accumulate less damage.
Li Hang sadly ordered his subordinates to send a new set of protective clothing to his son, but he himself was distressed and didn't dare to look at his son.
After putting on the new protective suit, Bai Lan's cousin walked up to Bai Lan again:
"Let's do it again."
Bai Lan nodded, and the two counted down to three seconds in unison, and then, punched.
Brandy scissors, cousin cloth.
After winning two games in a row, Bai Lan began to admire her luck, and she smiled:
"Cousin, it's still you."
was unlucky twice in a row, and my cousin was a little irritable, but he still obediently fulfilled his promise and went to clear the mines.
This time it took eighty centimeters and was blown up again.
After re-trimming, my cousin was not convinced, and guessed with Bai Lan again:
"I don't believe you can win! This time, let's win two out of three games! β
Outcome...... Even if it was a best-of-three system, Bai Lan still won.
The cousin was annoyed and angry, and pointed at Bai Lan and yelled-
"You must have cheated! It doesn't count! β
Bai Lan looked at him silently, didn't say anything, just waited for him to be willing to gamble and lose.
Seeing the flying abilities above his head constantly flying over the minefield, helping to transport the first batch of resources into safety, Bai Lan's cousin became even more irritable.
Originally, when he first got this ability, he felt very happy, thinking that he would finally not be killed by zombies, but he didn't expect that there was still a risk of being pushed by his father and stepping on a mine.
I really envy those ...... who can fly
Reluctantly moving forward, he began to stall for time.
He looked back at the detonated craters, trying to find out what the rules were for where the mines were planted.
He hadn't found the rules before, but this time maybe he had gone far enough, his eyes lit up, and he actually saw something boring!
These densely packed potholes can spell out a less-than-complete Japanese phrase!
With his years of experience in playing games at home, even if this sentence is only less than half of it, he vaguely recognizes it-
Those words mean "Stupid, die"!
And next to those words, there is a ring of safety two meters wide.
The last word only blew up a mine, as long as he can avoid this "γ" character and step on a safe area, he should be able to live, right?!
Because of this small discovery, Bai Lan's cousin's original displeasure of losing the guess was also swept away.
Out of some dark thoughts, he didn't tell Bai Lan about this discovery, he wanted Bai Lan to suffer a few losses.
According to his findings, he carefully calculated where the stroke would be if the word was written backwards, trying to find a safe place.
This time, he successfully completed the one-meter walk.
Suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, Bai Lan's cousin pretended to be calm and turned back to continue to guess with Bai Lan.
Bai Lan didn't see anything different, thinking that he was just lucky, so he continued to guess boxing.
This time, it was finally Bailan's turn to be unlucky and lose once.
Willing to lose the bet, she slowly rubbed forward.
The route she took deviated from the safe route her cousin had in mind, and just after the deviation appeared, Bai Lan was also unfortunately hit by a landmine.
Bai Lan was not as excited as her cousin, although she cried in pain, she didn't complain anything, and continued to guess her luck.
Desperately fighting, Bai Lan found that the god of luck didn't seem to favor her anymore.
My cousin didn't step on a single thunderbolt, but she began to strike one thunderbolt after another.
It wasn't until Bai Lan was blown up six times by a mine that Bai Lan finally won once.
Her cousin was not sad when he lost, but couldn't help but smile gloatingly, and told his little secret:
"I know how the mines are arranged. It's in Japanese! I'm still not going to be blown up, because I haven't finished writing this word yet! β
After saying that, my cousin walked out.
But reality played a big joke on him.
When he had walked about fifty or sixty centimeters, there was a loud bang!
This time, the power of the mine's spread has become greater, and a large crater more than five meters wide has been blasted out!
What's even more terrifying is that this time it was a serial explosion.
After a dozen loud bangs, the ground was in ruins, and the sand was flying all over the sky.
Bai Lan was just on the verge of the first explosion, but fortunately she was not bad, so there was basically no damage except for being raised in sand.
However, one of the flying abilities that happened to fly above was overturned by the air waves, fell to the ground and died of lightning strikes.
Bai Lan was so frightened that she didn't dare to move, and lay on the ground silently.
When the smoke and dust cleared, she looked up again, only to see a zigzag pit exploded in front of her, and the end of the pit was only a dozen meters away from the end of the thunderstorm.
And her poor cousin was lying dying at the bottom of the pit.
Bai Lan and the healing ability came to her cousin's side together, and the healing ability worked hard to heal her cousin's injuries, while Bai Lan stood silently beside him.
The cousin looked very injured, he spat blood in his mouth, his eyes were full of puzzlement, and he muttered:
"How could it be...... It shouldn't be...... It shouldn't have been fried...... That word hasn't been written yet......"
Seeing him like this, and thinking of the fact that he deliberately concealed his discovery just now, and gloated and laughed at her, Bai Lan couldn't help but sarcastically:
"Probably because the Japanese army was tired of the mine typesetting back then, and in the end they didn't bother to arrange it, so they just piled up all the mines there."
"You!" The cousin coughed violently in anger and cursed Bai Lan, "You will not die well!" β
"You must have died before me."
The cousin has more breath and less breath, and the healing ability is furrowed, and it seems that he can't be saved.
Bai Lan walked along the deep pit, and the road of more than 100 meters was not attacked by any mines.
Crawling out of the pit with great difficulty, Bai Lan walked the last ten meters of the road.
No danger arose.
The god of luck is back.
β¦β¦
The truck was driving on a small road that was not very wide.
Yan Zhuo squinted at the road in front of him and sighed softly.
The road was blocked by an SUV that had skidded and overturned.
If there was no one near that SUV, Yan Zhuo would have wanted to kick the accelerator and go down to top the car in front of him.
Unfortunately, there was someone near the car, and it was an acquaintance, so he could only choose to step on the brakes and stop the truck.
The sudden stop caused dissatisfaction among the passengers on the truck.
It's not too far from the safe zone, and a little more delay could be a little more dangerous.
Yan Zhuo poked his head out of the cab with a smile and greeted the passengers behind:
"Is there a Hercules in the car? Help push the car in front, they get in the way, thank you. β
In the midst of the complaints, a Hercules jumps out of the car and helps the person in front of him straighten the overturned car.
The men were grateful to the Adept, and the Hercules Adept was impatiently urging them to leave.
One of the women watched the Hercules Adeptus leave, and with a casual glance, she saw Zhang Yan sitting on the front of the car.
Zhang Yan also saw the other party, it was Ning Meng.
Ning Meng waved her hand in surpriseββ
"You're alive too?! That's great! Where are you going? β
Before, Yan Zhuo used his mental power to tell Zhang Yan and Zheng Ziye their destination while driving, and Zhang Yan replied lightly:
"Go to Guanyin Pond."
Ning Meng's surprise:
"Really? We are also going to Guanyin Pond! Just drop by! Let's go together! β
And Liu Mang, who was sitting in the car, once again showed that kind of inquiring look to Zhang Yan, who should be very curious about why she went to Guanyintang.
Sensing Liu Mang's gaze, Zhang Yan glanced back lightly.
Liu Mang was stunned, smiled slightly, and took his eyes off Zhang Yan.
Liu Mang also knew that there was no time to waste, so in less than half a minute, they turned the car back on, turned to the side of the road, and made way for a way.
Let the truck go first, which is Liu Mang's thanks, and their SUV is close behind.
Bohai City is not small, the location of Guanyintang is a suburb, 20 kilometers away from the suburbs, and the safety is safe, but how to solve the problem of food and clothing is still worried about the ignorant people on the truck.
When the truck came to the Third Ring Road, someone couldn't help but offer to get off.
Because the Third Ring Road is already considered a suburb of the city, it is far enough away from the safety zone and the city center, although there are zombies nearby, but they are far less dense than the city center.
This suggestion was echoed by a large number of people, with a total of 36 people getting off the bus at the Third Ring Road.
The remaining forty-two people in the car were also a little hesitant, not knowing what to choose.
But since Yan Zhuo and the police in the SUV were going to Guanyintang, these people also began to speculate that Guanyintang might be a good place, so most people still chose to gamble.
After refueling once on the road, there was no pause in between, and the two cars drove all the way to Guanyintang.
As soon as the vehicle turned into the entrance of Guanyin Pond, Yan Zhuo's truck was stopped by more than a dozen soldiers.
These soldiers were very hostile, and the soldiers at the head coldly dropped a sentence-
"Get out. Otherwise, shoot! β
The people in the car were a little surprised to see the soldiers here, but they were also a little happy, because it would definitely be safer if there were soldiers stationed.
Zhang Yan glanced at the SUV behind her, waiting for Liu Mangningmeng and them to come out and say a few words.
Ning Meng and the six people in their car all got out of the car, and each of them was wearing police uniforms or camouflage uniforms.
Seeing the clothes on their bodies, the soldiers softened and lowered their guns.
Ning Meng stepped forward to negotiate with the dozen or so soldiers, although the other party's tone was soft, but his attitude was just as tough - no matter what, he couldn't let him go, this was an organizational rule.
However, these soldiers still kindly showed Ning Meng a way.
By a river near Guanyin Pond, there is a village where they can live temporarily.
The village is only separated by a low hill from Guanyintang, and if they have any accidents, Guanyintang can also send support.
Ning Meng reluctantly walked to the car, explained to a few of her companions, and then relayed it to Zhang Yan and their car.
Hearing this result, the people in the car began to hesitate.
It's safer to have troops stationed here.
But what is the use of this army not being able to help anything?
After some hesitation, twenty-six more people withdrew, and decided to return the same way they came, trying their luck with a town with more resources in the distance.
In the end, except for Zhang Yan and the three of them, there were only sixteen people left in the truck.
Ning Meng and the eight people in the car, but they all chose to stay here.
Now that the camp was divided, Yan Zhuo drove the truck to the small village.
There were some ordinary zombies in the village, and Zhang Yan and the others quickly cleaned them up and killed all the wandering zombies.
After choosing some relatively clean and sturdy houses, Zhang Yan and they lived in this small village.
The crowd was naturally divided into six small teams, Zhang Yan and the three of them were a team, Ning Meng and the eight of them were a team, and the remaining eighteen people were also divided into four parts.
Where there are people, there is strife, and there must be a leader who is responsible for handling strife.
In order to choose a suitable leader, the twenty-nine men got together and began to discuss who would be better suited to be a leader.
There are a few people who especially want to be managers, and they talk eloquently, showing their experiences as officials, opening companies, being general managers, and being teachers, and strive to become leaders.
In order to screen more suitable candidates, Zhang Yan and the others were also forced to give a general account of their career and life experience.
In the end, after more than two hours of heated discussions, the most fierce battles were never able to compete for a high level, and no one was convinced.
I don't know who proposed to vote for the election, and after getting unanimous approval, someone took the initiative to tear up the slip of paper and distributed it to everyone, asking them to write down the people they wanted to nominate one by one.
As a criminal policeman, Ning Meng was considered by everyone to be more fair, so she sorted out the ballots.
She smiled and read out the names one by one, recording the votes of those people-
"Wang Ping, Li Yilong, Zhang Yan, Zhao Xingwei, Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan, Yan Zhuo, Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan, ......"
When Zhang Yan's name was mentioned again and again, almost everyone's eyes fell on Zhang Yan.
There are all kinds of emotions in those eyes, and they are very complicated.
Zhang Yan, who was originally calculating the remaining storage amount of her space ring, couldn't help but raise her head, waiting for the result with some surprise.
In the end, Ning Meng sorted out all the votes and pointed at Zhang Yan with a smile-
Zhang Yan had the highest number of votes, leading with 12 votes! You will be the leader among us in the future. β
Zhang Yan blinked slowly, acting very calmly.
She knew there must be something wrong with the vote.
Her personality is not too likable, and she doesn't have much communication with this group of people, at most, Yan Zhuo and Zheng Ziye will vote for her, 12 votes, which is too much difference.
Zhang Yan's eyes searched through the crowd, and sure enough, she found the place where the cat was greasy-
Not far away, Liu Mang waved his hand at her, drew a circle to circle their criminal police and soldiers, and signaled that they had voted for them.
Liu Mang's eyes were still so sharp when he looked at Zhang Yan, full of desire to explore and explore.
Seeing his eyes again, Zhang Yan only felt that her scalp was numb.
She found it annoying...... I really don't know what this guy wants to study.
